About Event

LauzHack is hosting a short, day-long hackathon with two tracks:

  1. The use of APIs, including Telegram bot builder API, LLM APIs (ChatGPT, Langchain, HuggingFace), scholarly APIs (Crossref, Semantic Scholar, Zotero), and Google Text-to-speech. Help us build a bot for academics to stay on top of publications in an interactive and funny way, or combine these APIs for new products!

  2. Exploration of LLM architecture modifications to identify practical tricks to improve efficiency and accuracy.
